Shirt Boxes are custom-printed paperboard folding cartons sized for shirts and folded apparel, made for clothing brands, gift retailers, and online sellers that ship garments. Each box is built from sturdy folding-carton paperboard and printed to your design inside and out.
A clean folding carton protects pressed shirts in transit and gives a tidy retail face on the shelf, while inside printing turns the open as part of the brand moment. Lighter paperboard keeps shipping costs down across volume runs. A common use: a menswear label packing dress shirts for direct-to-consumer orders that double as gift-ready boxes.
